My first time at this garage for a Full Service and it was a very pleasant over-all experience, excellent customer service from Steve and the Mechanic, things that will need doing in the future were explained so I now know what to expect. I will use again in the future for my next service.

I met very professional people. An electrician took care of all the electric faults that were piling up and we got a replacement while the reparations took place.

Can’t recommend this guy enough. He stayed way over other the 45 minutes prices and didn’t charge us. He was able to identify the issue and talk us through the ways to resolve it and was happy to come back out and help with more issues. He had all the right equipment and this guy was professional

Stuart provided exactly the service I was after, highlighting the issue that was bugging me for months in less than an hour.
Will use this company again, especially as they offer remote / mobile servicing options.

Really good garage, nice to meet someone you can trust, got them to do some other jobs for me as well. would highly recommend.

Gary, Renault Twingo

Quick response to my request, very knowledgeable and excellent service.

The job was completed in the same day and James completed additional checks outside of the scope, even small things like pumping up the tyres. It wasn't clear which parts I needed so he made sure both were in stock. When the price of the parts came in over the estimate, he provided a discount to try and bring this price back down. James is very friendly, professional and knows what he's talking about!

Aaron, Vauxhall Astra

What a thoroughly pleasant, professional and courteous chap. Explained the nagging issues clearly. Fixed everything, topped up the engine oil. James is car/motoring enthusiast which great. Cannot recommend him highly enough. I will definitely be doing all work through to James at JTH Performance. Thanks again...

James was polite and welcoming when he arrive. He diagnosed the problem with my van quickly, and showed me exactly what was wrong. He was honest and not over priced. Would definitely recommend.

I was happy with the price quoted for the genuine break pads and discs changed for my Mercedes C class. Staff was friendly. They gave me the right estimate of the time it would take to change the break and disc. Job seems to be done nicely. There is a 1year warranty also on the parts fixed which is helpful. Just wanted to say that I would have preferred an invoice which mentions that genuine parts have been used; not just invoice of the price and job done( it just gives me a piece of mind ).
Thanks again. Will use it in future.

paul, Citroen Xsara

Extremely happy with the work that was done, would even know I even had a dent there before! I had contacted so many garages and companies and all were telling me it would cost hundreds to repair, but Sanjay did it at affordable price. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Heather, Vauxhall Corsa

FANTASTIC service! Sanjay the mechanic was so helpful and obliging, fitting my car repairs in at the last minute. His advice was honest (car needed pads and discs) and his repairs reliable. I would definitely recommend to anyone in need of a good mechanic and will certainly be using SMT cars for all future car repairs!

Kimberley, Hyundai Ix20

I am a very happy customer. Sanjay immediately knew what was actually wrong with the car. Communication was great, My fly wheel had a groove in it (Which was not included in the quote). The car gave Sanjay some trouble and he spent a lot of time on the car which he definitely did not include in the quote - or in the bill. He is a very thorough mechanic, diagnosing the problems and letting you know. Had to add the fly wheel repair and the oil to the original quote - But didn't add the extra labour. Very happy
